Latest Review Papers in Molecular Microbiology

Dear Colleagues,

Recent advancements in molecular microbiology have been numerous and significant. These include the interactions within microbial communities across different environments, particularly in the context of human health and disease. Cutting-edge imaging technologies, including high-resolution microscopy, have yielded significant insights into microbial behaviour and pathophysiology at the single-cell level. Artificial intelligence is also playing a role via its integration in microbial identification and ecological modelling. Significant progress has also been made in the field of molecular diagnostics for human pathogens, with a focus on the application of how current methodologies apply in various clinical settings. Research into the molecular mechanisms of microbial resistance to the drugs currently used to treat infections is also remains a high priority area of research.

This Topic Collection invites authors to contribute reviews in these and other associated areas in molecular microbiology.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the collection website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
